A (b)(6) male needed a iabp catheter as an elective cv support until the patient had a capg the following day.All three iab catheters were inserted and acted the same say upon insertion.The catheters would begin to deflate on the distal portion of the catheter and would lose all inflation and wither.Three attempts were made w/three different catheters.This is the third catheter used.The datascope pumps were analyzed and found without defect.The catheters themselves were only suspect to have some type of defect.
